    Those are new terms for me (I’m a Metophobe). Landspout seems more plausible as Gustnados rarely connect to the cloud base (according to Wikipedia) - this almost certainly was. Here’s the image with some post editing:

    Thanks for taking the time to respond - really helpful. It seemed to reach quite close to the ground but I can’t confirm if it actually did. If I had the opportunity I would have tried to drive toward it but I was stuck in traffic. It was quite a sight to see, one of those double take moments! I’m absolutely fascinated by the weather, especially tornados so you can imagine my excitement when I saw it.

    I was hoping to get your opinion on this funnel cloud / tornado looking cloud I spotted this evening. It was near Thornbury, Bristol / River Severn. We’ve had some heavy rain and ominous clouds around but even with my limited meteorological knowledge I find it unlikely this would be the conditions for a tornados. Sadly I couldn’t study it enough to see rotation. What are your thoughts?

    Constant thunder and lightning, rain of biblical proportions!

    Lots of flashing to my south, similar to yesterday, however, this time I do hear faint thunder, come on!

    Whilst I realise it will pass me, the fork lighting in the distance is still a real treat. ☺ï¸

    Wind has suddenly picked up...hoping

    Distant flashes here in Clevedon.

    Had a nice dark cloud approach Portbury at about 4:30pm, brought 5-10 minutes of hail and very heavy rain, loved it, even if, briefly.

    Local weather station is saying 991.9 hPa Falling Rapidly Was initially saying "falling slowly" (Clevedon, Bristol)

    Just had 10 minutes of torrential downpour, fun while it lasted.
  13. TimMB
    Seems like most of the precipitation will miss Bristol.

    Non stop thunder at the moment, lovely!
  15. TimMB
    This is similar to what I saw!
  16. TimMB
    Saw a flash and having thunder every few minutes!
  17. TimMB
    Like the sound of that!

    I'm not, no, however I wouldn't know if it was even if it "hit me in the face".

    Just looking at the cloud I can see what can only be described as a funnel. I realise that it isn't but it certainly looks ominous!

    Very dark cloud moving across the sky here at Frenchay. Shame it'll miss me but it looks impressive!

    85% humidity here. Praying for some light shows tonight. :-)
  23. TimMB
    Humidity has shot up to 75%, not sure what relevance this has. Is higher humidity relative to lower temperature? It was 30c earlier with humidity at 50% and it was "comfortable". Now it's 24 and I'm sweating buckets!
  24. TimMB
    Temperature dropping now, peaked at 30.7c. Sky filled with Cirrocumulus clouds now.
  25. TimMB
    Just hit 30c here, +1.6c/hr, mental.
